Teaching

Fall

CHE 333 - Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics - II: Students learn how to explain properties of vapor-liquid, liquid-liquid, and liquid-solid mixtures and to solve complex chemical engineering problems in their reactions.

MT 588 - Electrochemical Materials and Devices for Energy and Sustainability: Students learn the fundamentals of electrochemistry and its use to design and analyze electrochemical energy materials and devices, such as batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells, for sustainability.

Spring

MT 602 - Kinetics of Materials: Based on the concept of irreversible thermodynamics, lectures cover various aspects of kinetics of materials that can occur during synthesis. The first half consists of theories about the diffusion of atoms and ions and the second half is about how to apply those theories in phase transformations.

Guest Lectures

NANO 525 - Techniques of Surface Analysis: Introduction to X-ray diffraction

Past

CHE 233 - Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics - I: Students learn concepts of thermodynamic variables, equations of state, and equilibrium. 

CHE 234 - Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics: Students learn how to set up a thermodynamic framework that can be used to explain reactions between vapor-liquid, liquid-solid, and solid-solid and to solve complex chemical engineering problems.

NANO 600 - Nanoscale Science and Technology: A two-hour guest lecture about nanotechnologies in batteries and supercapacitors
